Communications Technology 2104Jenn Sandifer

A little informationA security alarm is a system designed to detect intrusion – unauthorized entry – into a building or area. Security alarms are used in residential, commercial, industrial, and military properties for protection against burglary (theft) or property damage, as well as personal protection against intruders. Car alarms likewise protect vehicles and their contents. Prisons also use security systems for control of inmates.

DemandsA lot of people want to have home security for many reasons. To feel safe at night before bed, to make sure no one steals anything belonging to them, if a fire starts, most home security networks have carbon dioxide sensors and if there was ever a gas leak or something an alarm would sound and you could get out safely.

The demand for home security is increasing, a lot more crime is in the world, so a lot more people want to feel safe, even if they live in a “safe” neighbour hood. You never know when someone is going to come walking down the road and see an option to go rob a house. You should get security as soon as possible.
